GraphQL resolvers only resolving the first type - graphql

Question

so im working on a project of mine and i seem to hit a dead end with my abilities.
I am working on a GraphQL backend that is supposed to fetch some data from a MySQL database. I already got the resolvers working so i can fetch all users etc. but i am not able to fetch nested types. For example:
query {
ways {
id
distance
duration
purpose
User {
id
dob
}
}
}
This only returns all the ways from my database but the User returns null
schema.ts
export const typeDefs= gql`
schema {
query: Query
}
type Query {
ways: [Way]
users: [User]
getUser(id: String!): User
getWay(id: String!):Way
}
type Way{
id:String
distance:Float
duration:Float
stages:[Stage]
purpose:String
User:User
}
type User{
id:String
firstname:String
lastname:String
sex:String
dob:String
annualTicket:Boolean
Ways:[Way]
}
resolver.ts
export const resolvers = {
Query: {
ways: async(parent, args, context, info) => {
console.log("ways")
const answer=await getAllWays();
return answer;
},
users: async(parent, args, context, info) => {
console.log("users")
const answer=await getAllUser();
return answer;
},
getUser: async(parent, args, context, info) =>{
console.log("getUser")
const answer=await getUserPerID(args.id);
return answer;
},
getWay:async(parent, args, context, info) =>{
console.log("getWay")
const answer=await getWayPerID(args.id);
return answer;
}
},
User:async(parent, args, context, info) =>{
console.log("User: id="+args.id)
ways: User => getWaysPerUserID(args.id)
},
Way:async(parent, args, context, info) => {
console.log("Way: id="+parent.userID)
user: Ways => getUserPerID(parent.userID)
}
I would expect the outcome to include the user and its data too, using the above mentioned query.
Any advice is much appreciated.

Only fields, not types, can have resolvers. Each key in your resolvers object should map to another object, not a function. So instead of
Way:async(parent, args, context, info) => {
console.log("Way: id="+parent.userID)
user: Ways => getUserPerID(parent.userID)
}
You need to write:
Way: {
// We capitalize the field name User because that's what it is in your schema
User: (parent) => getUserPerID(parent.userID)
}
